Superhero Dress-Up

Updated: Aug 10, 2020

As an Experience Early Learning Blog Ambassador, we receive the Experience Early Learning preschool curriculum in exchange for sharing our honest and authentic stories resulting from our personal experiences. As always, our opinions on amazing things for children are 100% our own. Keep in mind that all preschoolers do things in their own time and on their own terms. What one is ready for, another might not be. Please use your best judgement when planning activities for your children.

The topic for Week 1 of Let's be Superheroes was Superhero Dress-Up and we spent lots of our time working on fun Make & Play activities.

There are usually at least a few Make & Play activities in each month's Experience Early Learning curriculum kit.

This week, we made superhero costumes. The preschoolers created superhero shields, capes, masks, and even belts.

On Monday, we made shields, which was a wonderful way for the preschoolers to practice writing the first letter of their names.


Tuesday we learned about "Color Vision" and looked for hidden pictures with a fun color wand Make & Play using red cellophane

For the rest of the week, everyone worked on making their very own superhero outfits. After all, every superhero needs the right apparel for the job.


We've all been really looking forward to this theme from Experience Early Learning (formerly Mother Goose Time) and especially in light of trying to get the children comfortable wearing masks.

One of the things that we've been telling the preschoolers is that they look like superheroes in their masks. They love it! You know, because superheroes are cool.


The children have been so proud of their amazing superhero creations and dramatic play is an excellent way for toddlers and preschoolers to explore different roles and scenarios as well as practice communication skills.

Experience Early Learning has been wonderful. Not only does each and every activity coordinate with the monthly theme, but all of the important early learning standards are covered as well.
